Visiting speaker Graham Webb of Jubilee Church Liverpool on how the church should be a diverse body: young and old, black and white, rich and poor, cautious and risk-taking.
Why? Because God brings together people who think and live differently, and that is a strength, not a weakness.
Graham looks at Romans 14, which recounts how the early church in Rome faced conflicts over dietary laws and Sabbath observance between Jewish and Gentile Christians. Rather than argue, Paul urged believers to accept one another, recognising that each person stands before God, not one another.
What should we learn from this? Don’t judge.
Whether someone eats meat or not, or worships on Saturday or Sunday, we are not to condemn but to encourage.
